About

And I Knew Everything Would Be Alright is an exploitable web comic series in which a woman expresses that she "knew everything would be alright" after hearing her love interest say a variety of humorous expressions. While the meme originally circulated within Portuguese-speaking communities online, English language variants began appearing on Reddit in mid-2017.
